A new american made doc,claims that the red baron was not shot down by the canadian pilot but by an austrailian(SP) gunner.Now they said they proveD it by computor simulation.Now the red baron being as smart as he was,never flew that low for a gunner to shoot at him,but if you were shot down by another plane,then you would be close to the ground to be shot at by a gunner.DUH! The red baron was on the tail of another canadian pilot, wop may.Who inturn became the most famous bush pilot ever. I am just amazed that they did'nt say an american shot him dowm.LOL

This has been a subject of debate for over 80 years, and is not really new! I don't think we will ever know.

SO, WHAT DO CANADIANS HAVE TO BE PROUD OF?
1. Smarties
2. Crispy Crunch, Coffee Crisp
3. The size of our footballs fields and one less down
4. Baseball is Canadian
5. Lacrosse is Canadian
6. Hockey is Canadian
7. Basketball is Canadian
8. Apple pie is Canadian
9. Mr. Dress-up kicks Mr. Rogers ass
10. Tim Hortons kicks Dunkin' Donuts ass
11. In the war of 1812, started by America, Canadians pushed the
Americans back...past their 'White House'. Then we burned it...and most
of Washington, under the command of William Lyon McKenzie who was insane
and hammered all the time. We got bored because they ran away, so we
came home and partied...Go figure..
12. Canada has the largest French population that never surrendered to
Germany.
13. We have the largest English population that never ever surrendered
or withdrew during any war to anyone, anywhere.
14. Our civil war was a bar fight that lasted a little over an hour.
15. The only person who was arrested in our civil war was an American
mercenary, who slept in and missed the whole thing... but showed up just
in time to get caught.
16. We knew plaid was cool far before Seattle caught on.
17. The Hudsons Bay Company once owned over 10% of the earth's surface
and is still around as the worlds oldest company.
18. The average dog sled team can kill and devour a full grown human in
under 3 minutes.
19. We still know what to do with all the parts of a buffalo.
20. We don't marry our kin-folk.
21. We invented ski-doos, jet-skis, velcro, zippers, insulin,
penicillin, zambonis, the telephone and short wave radios that save
countless lives each year.
22. We ALL have frozen our tongues to something metal and lived to tell
about it.
23. A Canadian invented Superman.
